The left and the right are locked in a tight battle for the top prize in Wisconsin’s disputed April 7 elections. But the war over last week’s vote isn’t even close to ending
Liberal Wisconsin state Supreme Court challenger Jill Karofsky defeated conservative Justice Daniel Kelly in the biggest battle of Wisconsin's April 7 elections. But the war over voting in Wisconsin and other states isn't even close to ending.
"It’s a victory for justice and democracy in an election that should never have taken place in person," Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler said in a statement following Karofsky's victory. Wikler also said at the time he expected lawsuits from individual candidates from across the state, separate from the party. The Democratic presidential primary and the state Supreme Court race — with its potential impact on future redistricting and other state laws — were the highest-profile races on the ballot this month, but hundreds of local government elections were held as well, with what looks set to be much lower turnout than the equivalent contests four years ago.
